That is a North American NA 16 or derivative, the predecessor of the North American T-6 Texan

My guess is it is a BC-1 (NA-36)

Some observations that may help to determine the precise model:

  • The fuselage is covered with fabric. Later models used metal
  • The trailing edge of the rudder is rounded, later models had a straight rudder
  • The bottom corner of the rudder is squared, some other models are rounded (e.g BT-9)

The fuselage shows the crest of the USAAF's Technical Training Command:

The crest of the USAAF's Technical Training Command, similar to the one shown on the fuselage of the aircraft
